RB, the projector is mounted on four studs which are screwed into the oem shroud from the back. Those studs are screwed into four little cylindrical protrusions (for lack of a better word). I simply shortened the protrusions and refitted the studs. Then the front of the shroud has to be drilled out to get the projector to stick out through it so that you can slip the M3 shrouds onto to the projectors. Pictures of this are on page #2 of this thread.

I am going to fit mine when I do the chain guides and valve cover gaskets.
Hi TriX5,
Just admiring your good work and patience
Can you clarify something for us!I am surprised no one asked you yet!Can you tell us the build date of your headlights?Your X5 being a 2003 registration,those headlight must be pre 10/2002 build ,surely,looking at the black sticky glue!I wasnt so lucky ,mine were build 10/2002 (had to dremel)and 7/2002 (this had the black glue ,like yours )
Keep up the good work
